  • Neil Warnock said recently that he was ready to get back into management.

    Again, might not be a cheap option for #cafc and in his latter years has been more of an impact boss that gets instant results.

    He was up for doing the manager's job a few years back when Simon Jordan was…

    Find it interesting that Rich has put this out there 👀

    I'd love Warnock. Perfect short term manager (18 months - Not Charlton Short term). 
  • I am really hopeful that Charlton are actively considering Warnock. He is an impact manager and would definitely sort us out this season. As for next season I doubt he’d want to stay beyond that but with the right support in the summer I could see him getting us promoted.

    I hope the club are on the phone to Big Sam. The only way we get out this situation is going back to basics! 4-4-2 Brexit football, all British players!

    The American owners want Trump. Have to wait until November to see if he wins the Residency or if he can do both jobs. 
    Our defence needs someone who can build a wall
    But can he? He failed to do that at his last club, despite promising to do so and spending bigly.

    Warnock would be a short term appointment at best. Would rather look for a longer term option so we aren't back on the carousel of looking for a manager at the end of May. 
  • If Warnock is actually open to the opportunity, go and get that man now and lean on all of his experience.

    Warnock is a good shout just to get us out of the shit . Short term obviously.

    Whoever comes in I really do hope the board do not make demands that the football has to be a certain style and played a certain way. This has never been successful for us. Just let the new guy get on with what he knows will win games.

    I don’t know, if Warnock can whip them into shape we become a more attractive option in the summer

    Would love it if it was Warnock. Would show the football world we've still got it (a bit)

    Warnock is a manager to keep us up this season.  

    We should be looking for a manager to do that and then get us promoted next season and take us on into the championship. Warnock is not that man

    If he keeps us up that's surely all that matters at this point.

    Keeping us up shouldn’t be difficult, we shouldn’t need a short term specialist for it. 

    Much rather pick a manager for the long term, if they are even half-decent they will keep us up. But they also get a close look at the squad ahead of the summer

    I assume they didn't sack MA without first having considered who next.

    I further assume they are therefore already negotiating with parties and the 'message to supporters' is mere fluff / PR nonsense about reviewing who / what next.
    You’re giving them too much credit if you think they have/had someone lined up. If that was the case they’d have been appointed yesterday. It’s not a nice business but you owe it to the club to have someone lined up ready to takeover. 

    Look at Forest recently, sacked Cooper on the 19th December, Nuno appointed the next day. 

    It’s not like Appleton’s sacking came out of the blue, he’d been dire for months. It’s inexcusable for Scott, Rodwell and Methven not to have a managerial succession plan, they clearly don’t have one. Clueless.

    The same Warnock who has a record 8 promotions to his name?
  • Scott would be shit scared having Warnock in the building and I doubt Warnock would work under that twat.

    Of course, trouble is I don't trust this lot to pick the right long term manager in a short period of time. I'd feel much more confident with Warnock in now, get the job done and go from there.
  • IF Warnock came in that would be a first class appointment, and would give us a fighting chance of safety.
    If we stayed up by the skin of our teeth I'd say "thanks Mr Warnock, you did what you were paid to do".
    However, it would raise further questions to me the state of the squad.

    I'm sure their paths would have crossed many times before.

    Granted, BUT the immediate concern is avoiding relegation.

    More likely end of the season and back to square one in the summer. Don’t see the point unless you definitely have someone lined up for the summer or he mentors someone like Euell etc.

    I’m really not. I understand the scepticism however. 

    It’s inconceivable the conversation was not held before they binned him. 

    More the case might be an inability to pay what they need to pay. 

    I fear they are having to balance their own costs/remuneration in and around the funds available and 2 x payoffs (however modest) were not budgeted for.

    Pretty sure he’s been quite open about just looking to do rescue jobs now. Tried doing the summer and a full season with Huddersfield but ended up not doing well and agreeing to leave

    It is inconceivable but they clearly didn’t have a plan when they sacked Holden and if they had someone lined up then they’d already be in charge. 
  • Well, I've decided I'll do everything I can to aid AS & co in their search for MA's replacement. 

    I'm sending them a small gift which I came across on Ebay last night.

    A well thumbed edition of THE most important handbook known to man, signed & endorsed inside the front cover by one of its most notable successes, none other than Karel Fraeye.

    "  Football Manager Recruitment for Dummies ".

    No need to thank me, dear friends.

    That could work nicely. Euell or Jackson could learn a lot from someone like Warnock. Probably the former is more likely because of the latter being at a club and already being a head coach/manager.

    Can’t see Jackson returning? Why would he? 

    It’s what we should have done with Curbs. One more year and you mentor your successor.

    I think they have a plan (of sorts). It is likely not realistic though as I assume we wont pay what we need to pay & that is why we ended up with Holden & Appleton.

    The worry is Curtis is the plan and they are simply buying time to announce it.

    Warnock for 18 months would be amazing. Can't think of anyone who'd have a better chance of both keeping us up this season and also having a go at promotion next.
